Many churches have an English service as well as a service in another language such as Spanish, Chinese, or Armenian. Yet, Sunday worship services are not the same every week. Sometimes there may be a guest minister or speaker from another state or even another country who will speak in only one language. This means they will speak at one service and thus leave out many members of the congregation.

For those special Sunday presentations, it’s important to include everyone by offering to combine the congregation and use both languages. This way, all parishioners are together to enjoy the special service. Of course, for everyone to understand the speaker, a translator is needed. The problem is how to offer a translation of the service into one language without disturbing the other congregation members who speak the other language.

There are several things to consider when deciding if translation is right for your house of worship, but if you have the need, an easy to install and cost effective option would be a device with multiple inputs that streams audio over wifi. A portable wifi sound system can be an excellent solution to ensure all congregants can hear the service clearly.

Translation devices for churches with built-in wifi send one-way audio to a user’s smart device. A translator can speak only to those parishioners who need to hear the service in another language, and since the parishioner is using earbuds it prevents distracting anyone nearby. Not only that, it’s portability means you can take the solution anywhere–with built-in wifi, anywhere really means anywhere you want to hold a service! This can be an incredible advantage for houses of worship that hold events like revivals, carnivals, outdoor movie screenings or river baptisms. Best of all, the entire congregation is together to enjoy the service and speaker wherever you are.

An audio solution that streams to your congregants smart device means the church doesn’t have to keep up with equipment upgrades or cleaning. It also allows the listener to do so discreetly. It’s like a very quiet PA system that allows your members to hear every word of the service, in their own language*, wherever they are. Further, offering translation at every service fosters a greater and continuing sense of belonging, and could lead to membership growth through its inclusive nature.

The AudioFetch Signature can connect with the wifi service already at the church, while the FetchExpress has built in wifi for endless service possibilities – without any wiring or bulky equipment. All the congregation members have to do is simply download the AudioFetch app to their smartphones and listen. It’s an economical and simple to install audio solution that could grow your congregation.

Get ready! The men’s World Cup begins on June 14 in Russia with 32 qualifying teams representing every continent competing for the trophy.

Soccer is the world’s most popular sport and the World Cup continues to break viewing records. 764 million people watched the last women’s World Cup, making it the most-watched event in the history of sports. Winning (or losing) a football match is a matter of community pride, and can set a whole nation to beaming (or moping).

This means that beginning on June 14, millions of soccer’s passionate and vocal fans will seek their local pub, restaurant, or sports bar to watch the games with a community of cheering celebrants.

Watching the game is ultra-important to the fans, but hearing it is important, too. When a host of people are shouting and high-fiving because their team just scored, there are fans supporting the opposing team who are hoping to hear the ref call a foul. Or suppose at that moment a player shouted something at the ref or a fight started. It’s that “what just happened” moment that no one wants to miss hearing.

You no longer need to make a choice between making customers choose just one game or no sound at all. With an audio wireless streaming solution that connects to your WiFi, you can set your televisions to whichever games are happening and customers can hear the game they want, no matter where their tables may be, simply by using their smartphones or tablets. It’s a solution that makes all patrons happy–your sports fans have the best possible audio experience, and those who aren’t interested in the game can listen to another option if they choose or nothing at all.

Installing a system that streams audio over wifi in time for the World Cup can mean more Instagram moments and Tweets saying, “I’M HERE!” Your bar or restaurant is the place to be. And think of the year-round benefit. Baseball, basketball, American football, hockey, and every world championship.

If you’re an American bar owner who is dubious about how useful this will be since the U.S. didn’t make this year’s World Cup, remember: the Women’s World Cup is in 2019, and they played the most-watched soccer game in the nation’s history.

Get ready now, and contact us to see how we can help you give your patrons a better game day experience.
